User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6

The right column has three images, each with text underneath, much like a
labeled icon.  It looks like 3 links.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on an *image* in right column, say the firefox logo on black
background, above the "other merchandise" caption.


Actual Results:  
There is just one item, a decal.  The other categories also appear to have just
one product.  Quite disappointing.  


Expected Results:  
Page listing "other mechandise" with several items.  Ditto for other categories.

Much later I clicked on another link and found that there are category listing
pages.  It turns out the problem is that in the right column, the image links to
just the representative product pictured, rather than to the expected list of
all the merchandise in the category named by the caption.

The right column has three images, each with text underneath, like labeled
icons.  It looks like 3 links, not 6.

To avoid this confusion I suggest something like one of the following.  Either:

a. make it so clicking on the image above "other merchandise" links to the other
merchandise listing, not just the one product (and ditto for other categories).  Or

b. add name of each featured product, such as "firefox decal", under each image,
so the image has its own caption, and "other merchandise" category is clearly a
separate link.

Hope this helps!  Sail on!
